This means the people developing the car software may face the issue of deciding different values or worth on human lives or leaving it to the machine learning software to decide itself. Another issue is whether driverless cars should fully prevent human interaction or still allow humans to control the car if and when they see fit. This may raise the question of whether human error or software error was the cause of any accidents.
